ASMCLI -modifyCollection
The modifyCollection command modifies an existing collection by replacing the current definition with a list of volumes or
components, if the list constitutes a valid collection. If the modification fails validation, the original definition is unchanged.
Command Syntax
ASMCLI modifycollection
[-collection="collection_name"]
[-volume={"drive" | "mount_point"} |
-component="component_name"]
[-newname] [-volumeBased={"Yes"|"No"}]
For a description of these parameters, see Command Parameters.
Example
Modify the collection Test Collection 1 by changing its definition to volumes e:\ and f:\, and add any components contained
on the new volumes.
> ASMCLI modifycollection collection="Test
Collection 1" volume=e:\;f:\
ASMCLI -mount
Specify the mount subcommand to mount an existing Smart Copy.
Use optional parameters to mount multiple volumes and control the selection of volumes.
NOTE:
ASM will only detect drives that were mapped with the same user as ASM is running. This limitation is caused by the
user access control behavior on Windows. Explorer runs under the administrator account, so if you used Explorer to map a
network folder and your ASM is running as a system account, ASM will not detect that network folder. That network folder
will be mounted but you will still see the network folder mapped to the original drive letter you used in Explorer.
